Giant Rune Decks Dominate Clash Royale

Clash Royale's Rune Giant Event: Top Deck Strategies

The Rune Giant event in Clash Royale, running from January 13th for a week, presents a unique challenge. This guide provides three effective decks built around the new Epic Rune Giant card, a four-elixir unit that targets buildings and buffs nearby troops. Remember, the Rune Giant only enhances two troops at a time, so careful card selection is key.

Top Rune Giant Decks

The Rune Giant's unique ability to boost nearby troops with increased damage every third hit makes it a powerful addition to any deck. Here are three deck options catering to different playstyles:

Deck One: Balanced Offense (Average Elixir: 3.5)

This versatile deck offers a strong defense and effective counter-push. Guards and Inferno Dragon neutralize enemy giants and heavy units, while Firecracker and Arrows handle swarms. For the offensive, combine the Ram Rider with Rage for a devastating speed boost.

Deck Two: Double Giant Powerhouse (Average Elixir: 3.9)

This deck utilizes both the Rune Giant and Goblin Giant for a relentless tower assault. Electro Dragon and Guards provide robust defense against opposing giants, while Hunter and Arrows handle swarms. The Dart Goblin synergizes exceptionally well with the Rune Giant, making this a high-impact option.

Deck Three: X-Bow Support (Average Elixir: 3.3)

This deck centers around the X-Bow as the primary attacker, supported by Archers, Knight, and Dart Goblin. Goblin Gang provides a strong counter to heavy units like Prince, P.E.K.K.A., and Ram Rider. The deck's diverse small troop selection makes it difficult for opponents to counter effectively. If your Archers are targeted by Arrows or Log, quickly deploy Dart Goblin or Goblin Gang to maintain pressure.

Experiment with these decks and adapt them to your playing style. Remember to focus on synergistic troop combinations to maximize the Rune Giant's buffing potential and dominate the arena!
